Abstract

Monascus yellow pigments are natural pigments produced by Monascus fermentation. There are many kinds of Monascus yellow pigments, some of which are worthy of industrial production and application. In this paper, different kinds and properties of natural Monascus yellow pigments are introduced, as well as a discussion on the measurement method and product standards. It′s hoped that this paper will provide the readers a comprehensive understanding on Monascus yellow pigments. Furthermore, this paper could be used as reference for the modification of the national standard of natural Monascus yellow pigments in the future.
